Chapter 92 Even the Chamber Pot Was Being Snatched Away Like Crazy!

Ten days later, at the Zhengxuan Building in the capital.

"The bid is for a set of Xiashanhu inkstones from the current Prime Minister, Lord Fucha!"

"Lord Fucha is the top scholar in the thirteenth year of the Wanjia period."

"He is a man of outstanding literary talent, generous, able to recommend others' strengths, considerate of the overall situation, and has extraordinary tolerance and self-cultivation."

At the auction, the palace maids, all dressed in lotus-pink, invited the wealthy people from all over the country who came to the capital for the auction to take their seats, and also served tea.

There were also many people standing around watching, eating melon seeds.

On the auction stage, the palace maids explained, their voices were as gentle as the chirping of an oriole, and they became excited when they talked about the key points.

"Lord Fucha passed the imperial examination at the age of twelve, and won the first place in the imperial examination at the age of nineteen, ... he became the prince's imperial teacher at the age of thirty-seven, and was promoted to the chief minister at the age of forty-five!"

"This set of inkstones with a tiger descending from the mountain that Lord Fucha brought out this time was his old love when he was young."

"He didn't have much money at the time, and he wandered outside the store every day, silently swearing in his heart-"

"I want to be like that tiger descending from the mountain, and create a prosperous world!"

The palace maid who explained the story was specially selected by Concubine Liu and received special storytelling training.

In an instant, the auction site was in an uproar!

"What a great one I want to be like a tiger descending from the mountain!"

"I didn't know that the most calm chief minister was as fierce as a tiger back then, and had a youthful spirit."

"Lord Fucha, you actually have such ambitions!"

Xiao Yunzhou, who was sitting in the private room on the second floor, picked up the teacup and chuckled, "I just know that Lord Fucha was so powerful back then."

The old face of the chief minister Fucha was almost hot.

Who wrote this lyrics?

Does he still have the face to save it?

The auctioneer on the first floor said in a sonorous voice, "This downhill tiger inkstone was not bought home until Fu Cha Shoufu passed the imperial examination, entered the Hanlin Academy, and received his first month's salary."

"This is not only his favorite thing for many years, but also a symbol of his lofty ambitions!"

Fu Cha Shoufu coughed and almost spit out the tea.

It's a bit exaggerated.

It's a bit too exaggerated.

In fact, he didn't use it many times after buying it.

He felt that this inkstone was not very easy to use!

"Emperor Fucha has not used even one-tenth or one-twelfth of this inkstone so far, so he must be reluctant to use it."

Emperor Fucha: "..."

The auctioneer smiled at the auctioneers, "Emperor Fucha spent twelve taels to buy this Xiashanhu inkstone."

"Today, with the passage of time, Emperor Fucha has given it to us to sell it on his behalf, and the minimum price he gave for the inkstone is nine taels."

"This is a special number, maybe it's because Emperor Fucha has the world in his heart... I hope everything will return to one! My Jing country will prosper and stand proudly among the countries!"

Emperor Fucha's beard was shaking.

"Now let's start bidding - this Xiashanhu inkstone was purchased after he passed the imperial examination. It is the favorite of Fu Cha. Everyone bid!"

"Oh, ninety-nine taels!"

"One hundred and ninety-nine taels!"

"Two hundred and ninety-nine taels!"

"..."

"I'll bid nine hundred and ninety-nine taels! I'm willing to pay nine hundred and ninety-nine taels for the lofty ambitions of Fu Cha, the current prime minister!"

The whole audience was shocked.

Even the teacup in Fu Cha's hand fell down.

What?

A twelve-tael thing was sold for nearly a thousand taels?

[嘤嘤嘤, my mother is really good at writing stories~]

Xiao Chuchu was shocked in the emperor's arms.

She still underestimated the admiration of people without official status for high officials and the top scholar in this era!

"Okay, the next item for sale is from the palace. It is a bamboo woven cushion in front of the Buddha in the Cining Palace of the current empress dowager."

The Ministry of Revenue Jiang Li couldn't help but stand up.

Why not put on the jade bowl?

Bamboo kneeling mat, isn't it precious?

"The Queen Mother once knelt on this bamboo mat."

"On the first and fifteenth day of every month, she kneeled in front of the Buddha to pray for the people."

Ministry of Revenue Jiang Li opened his mouth for a moment.

"You can see that there are obvious signs of wear in the middle of this mat."

"It is the traces of the Queen Mother's knees that have the people in her heart!"

Instantly, the viewing stand was boiling.

The people and the wealthy gentry were shocked.

"Oh my God! The Queen Mother is thinking about us ordinary people."

"Isn't the Queen Mother the most powerful in the palace? She kneeled on it?"

"We just don't have money. If we have money, we would also like to buy it back and kneel on the place where the Queen Mother knelt~"

The scene was very lively, with one wave higher than the other.

The articles of the princes praised by the emperor, the scriptures copied by the empress, the Buddhist scriptures and jade bowls of the empress dowager, the bracelets and gold hairpins of the concubines...

The writing brushes, inkstones and inkstones of the cabinet elders, the six ministers, the top and second place in the imperial examination... were auctioned one by one.

The auction was in full swing, the people watched the excitement, and the gentry and wealthy people bid desperately.

"Hey, Brother Liu, did you buy anything from the emperor?"

"No, what a pity! I only bought the spinning top that the little princess played with!"

"That's good too, your son can play with the little princess's things."

"Of course I am. I am very satisfied. I even bought a bottle of wine made by the mother of the champion!"

"Congratulations. I only bought the chamber pot where the Minister of Justice sat and thought about the law."

"Not bad. I didn't get this."

"..."

Xiao Yunzhou couldn't listen any more, or he would have laughed out loud.

[After all, the people really admire the officials and emperors. Our officials and royal family of Jingguo should work harder and live up to everyone's love! ]

Xiao Chuchu couldn't help but mutter in her heart.

Xiao Yunzhou was in awe. He immediately looked at the cabinet elders and the six ministers who came with him in casual clothes in the private room and cleared his throat.

"Everyone, I'm going back to the palace first."

"You stay and continue watching."

"Give me an article tomorrow, write about your feelings today."

"???"

"Why do you think the things you use are so fought over by the people, and how can you live up to the expectations of the people and the gentry?"

"..."

After Xiao Yunzhou finished speaking, he was ready to go back to the palace to continue studying Xiao Gege's "Basics of Finance", which he only learned superficially.

He still needs to continue thinking hard!

He didn't have time to waste time here, but when he turned around and saw Chuchu's excited little face, he couldn't bear to take the child back early.

"Let Concubine Liu take Xiao Gege back before the palace gate is locked."

Xiao Chuchu whimpered and kissed Xiao Yunzhou.

[Thank Emperor Dad~]

[Today we can draw again, wait for me to come back in the evening to draw a good thing to reward you~]

Xiao Yunzhou: "!"

Another? !

He didn't dare to make it public and hurried back to the palace to study.

"Wei Zheng, I also want to eat the prince's brain-boosting food tonight."

"..."

*

Xiao Chuchu watched the auction the whole time, enjoying it very much, and kept making noises to join in the fun.

Liupin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. As the manager, she was stunned until the last item of the harem was auctioned off and she had clicked all the items she had obtained.

"Received... 1.13 million silver?" Liupin was shocked.

This was almost the same as the bank's deposit on the first day.

[There are so many people who are not short of money. ]

Xiao Chuchu sighed.

Liupin didn't dare to delay, and quickly asked the people in the Ministry of Revenue to count the silver, and then she set off to return to the palace.

Originally, she wanted to go home to see Liu's father and mother, but now she could only give up.

She had to go back to the palace quickly to distribute the silver belonging to the harem to the women in the harem.

But who would have thought that she would be stopped as soon as she got on the carriage!

"Sister, mother asked me to bring you some duck eggs."

"You'll take them back to the palace to eat?" Liu Runnian drove the carriage to see his sister, Liu Bin.

"The food in the palace should be ok after checking it. These duck eggs are fine. Give them to Chuchu."

Liu Bin was about to turn around and ask her elder brother how his silk weaving book was going.

Then she heard Xiao Chuchu in her arms howl.

[Uncle, why don't you send some stuffed duck to mother~ I want to eat roast duck, not duck eggs~]

Xiao Chuchu was almost going crazy with greed.

Liu Bin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, the little thing hadn't even grown teeth yet.

Liu Runnian patted his head with a smile, "I'll keep an eye on the stuffed duck for Chuchu too. When our little Chuchu can eat meat, I, as your uncle, will definitely send the fattest batch to Chuchu."

Xiao Chuchu was very happy, but she was shivering in the wind halfway through her happiness, and her little face was cramped from the cold!

[It's so cold in Jingguo in winter. I almost forgot, I can't stand the cold recently, when will uncle make a down jacket! 】

Liu Runnian and Liu Bin were both stunned.

What kind of jacket?

Down?
